Intel Developer Forum, San Francisco, August 18, 2015. – As part of the opening keynote at the Intel Developer Forum IDF , Brian Krzanich, CEO of Intel Corporation, introduced new products, tools and software to support the personalization of computing, and talked about trends that are creating new opportunities for developers in a variety of areas.
Intel® RealSense™ technology is finding its way into new platforms and devices.
America’s Greatest Makers television project to be released in 2016.
3D XPoint™ memory will be used in various storage solutions based on Intel® Optane™ technology.
The CEO said computing is becoming increasingly personalized, making different aspects of our daily lives better. “Computers are now used almost everywhere: they are on our desks, in our bags, integrated into our homes and clothing, we even use wearable computing devices. Not only are they becoming smarter and more networked, but they’re becoming more perceptive and they’re becoming an extension of who we are.”.
An entire ecosystem is being built based on Intel’s designs to make these new possibilities a reality. Brian Krjanich details many of these products, tools, and technologies from the corporation that will help developers offer a groundbreaking user experience.
Krjanic introduced a range of updates to Intel® RealSense™ technology that will enable more devices and applications to be perceived, and announced new collaborative projects to secure the Internet of Things, in addition to programs and developer toolkits designed to accelerate the bring to market of IoT-based industrial solutions. Talking about the benefits of personalized wearable technology, Krjanic broke the news about the Intel® Curie™ module and talked about America’s Greatest Makers television program, created under the direction of Mark Burnett, CEO of United Artists Media Group*. The program will be broadcast on leading TV networks and Turner Broadcasting*.
Each year at IDF, Intel shares its vision for future technological innovation with developers and partners who will create new products, design systems, make movies, and produce new toys and devices that create amazing experiences. Below are the key announcements from the forum.
IDF 2015 highlights:
- Intel RealSense technology will be available on more platforms, giving developers more options to create new hardware and software with depth sensing capabilities. In addition to Windows* and Android*, developers can use Intel RealSense technology for Mac OS X*, ROS*, Linux*, Scratch*1, Unity*, XSplit*, OBS*, Structure SDK*, OSVR*, Unreal Engine 4*, and Project Tango* Google* . In addition, a number of developers, including Razer*, XSplit and Savioke*, have announced new platforms, peripherals and other solutions using Intel RealSense technology.
- With Google*, Intel is creating new innovations in mobile depth perception solutions by combining the Project Tango* platform Google* and Intel RealSense technology into a development kit for Android*-based smartphones. The Intel RealSense Smartphone Developer Kit creates new functionality, including indoor orientation and space exploration, virtual reality, 3D scanning and more. Developer kit will be available for select Android*-based developers by the end of this year.
- Intel partners with United Artists Media Group* and Turner Broadcasting* to create America’s Greatest Makers, which will premiere in the first half of 2016. As part of the television show, modern technology enthusiasts will compete for a $1 million prize. They will need to create the most original wearable technology and “smart” devices with advanced networking capabilities based on the Intel Curie.
- Intel Introduces Intel® Optane TechnologyTM, based on revolutionary nonvolatile 3D XPoint memoryTM, Intel’s advanced memory controller, hardware and software. The development will increase the speed of various upcoming products. Intel Optane technology will debut in early 2016 as part of a new line of high-speed, high-reliability Intel SSDs. New class of memory technology also to drive new line of DIMMs for next generation Intel data center platforms.
- Fossil Group* unveiled three products based on Intel technology as part of a joint project with Intel to create wearable technology announced in September 2014., Including a watch with advanced networking capabilities based on Android Wear. New Products to be Available in Q4. this year.
- Intel announced a new software platform designed specifically for Intel Curie. It includes all the necessary hardware, software, firmware and a software development kit to build a wide range of devices with new functionality. Intel IQ Software Kits will support future versions of the platform.
- Intel’s Enhanced Privacy Identification EPID technology will be used by leading companies, including Atmel* and Microchip*, to provide robust security for smart devices with advanced networking capabilities.
